APNA SKOOL(Jagriti Bal Vikas Samiti)
Background:Large number of migrant seasonal workers: agricultural
sectors and construction activities.Entire family lives in hutments/temporary sheds at the
construction site and brick kilns.Children of school going age are deprived of normal schooling
and just remain at worksites.Run errands for all and sundry and slowly get prematurely
inducted into workforce.girl child has to take care of the infants while parents are at
work and assist the family in household chores.Workers associate schooling with upper classes feel that
schooling is necessary only for those jobs that are in any case not available to them.
Reaching the School to these unreachable is the aim of Jagriti.
Apna SKool:Started by Jagriti Bal Vikas Samiti, IIT Kanpur in 1994.Largely cater to migrant worker kids from state of Bihar,
Hariyna and Western UP at construction site/bricklin.25 schools near bricklins and other construction sites with
25-30 students in grade 1 to 5 and run 7-8 mos. Total 800+ students.
Acts as bridge school so that the migrant kids can continue education away from home.
Students learn Reading, Writing and Arithmetic's (traditional 3 R's) just as in regular schools and at the same time participate in many extra curricular mind-broadening activities.
Many extra curricular mind-broadening activities, such as Songs and Dances, Artwork, Dramatics, Story telling and Poetry recitation, Sports and Games etc..
Apna SKool:Provides nutritious mid day meals to the students attending
Apna Skool.Helps students with school uniform and Shoes, Sweaters
during winters and School supplies, such as Text books and Copies.
Provides basic health needs in the form usual immunizations and vitamin supplements.
Program in place to enroll Apna Skool graduates in various mainstream schools and assist to attain higher education in form of scholarships.
52 children are benefited in 2014-2015.Helps to generate awareness among parents to appreciate the
need to get their children remain in School at least until they reach 15 years, so that they become good citizens.
Provides various vocational training.
Challenges:Village school does not accept students joining in the mid-year
and there are administrative hurdles to be overcome. RTE might help, legislation for Compulsory Education till 14 years In village schools children remain totally neglected as no teacher
wants to attend them. The children find themselves out of sync with the school either in terms of the level, or in terms of the methods of instruction. School may appear either boring or fearsome. It results into the dropping out of these children from the schools.
Continuity is lost as migrant workers do not necessarily return to the same worksite or same works contractor having a network of Apna Skools at many locations, past two years
with mixed results supplementary instructor cum monitor to provide personal
attention through some one familiar with the strategies for learning developed at Apna Skools
Challenges:Temptation for the older children to enter the workforce
and become wage-earners Apna Skools try to introduce older children to various
vocational options and work with organizations such as Jan Shikshan Sansthan
Not the main objective of the concept of Apna Skool.
